Avilla families, we need your help. We have many clothing items in our lost and found area. Please check for jackets and coats at home, along with shirts. If it's missing from home, it's probably safe here. Send a note to school and we can help try to find lost items.

Please join us in spreading some holiday cheer tomorrow, 12/9, by wearing red, green, or holiday themed clothing.
